Configuring User Applications

Configuring 3270 Users and Sessions

Display or Printer

Specify whether the session is a display or printer session.

LU/Pool name

The name of the LU or pool to be used by the session. Assign printer LUs for printer sessions, and display LUs or pools of display LUs for display sessions.

The LU should be defined on a host link station, and an LU pool should be defined in the LU Pools window.

If a session record specifies the name of an individual LU from a pool, but that LU is unavailable when the session is activated, the session can use any other available LU from the pool.

 

• To configure multiple sessions, supply the following information:

 

Session base name

 

The first five characters for the session name. A

 

unique name is constructed for each session, using

 

this base name and a session number.

 

If you want to add several 3270 sessions for use with the SNAplus2 3270

NOTE

 

emulation program, you can specify a base name of SESS. The first 10

 

sessions are automatically given the names SESS0001SESS0010.

 

Number of sessions

 

 

How many sessions to add.

 

Pool name

 

The name of an LU pool from which the sessions

 

can be assigned LUs.
